I've been slowly converting my actual train creations into virtual creations. See pics here: (URL) not much, but it's alotta fun making these cars and engines again in the virtual world :) I realized when updating my rolling stock page that some of (...)

I look for that reference a lot too. I find it this (...) (21 years ago, 5-Nov-03, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) (URL) Hi John, thanks for bringing up this question! I was thinking about this for a while myself and I decided to do it in a distance of 8 mm (which is same as two stud centers next to each other on a 1x2 brick - or holes in a technick beam.) (...)

(...) Well, I know how pointless it would be to "argue" with Lar (grin), but it would seem silly to not have this be a standard distance. I could easily imagine using a Technic cam or 1x3 liftarm on a wheel. (John frantically searching for FTX (...) (21 years ago, 5-Nov-03, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
